Abstract

Shielding the leg saves the life of 32% of animals irradiated with x rays in an absolutely lethal dose (850 R). Autografting of bone marrow from the protected area, if carried out immediately after irradiation, greatly increases the shielding effect. This protective action on autografting continues if it is carried out during the first 5 days after irradiation. Later (on the 7th to 10 th day after irradiation) autografting of bone marrow from the shielded area becomes less effective.
